I wanna start by saying I'm lucky enough to live in one of three areas in Arkansas where Pokemon is big, AND that Nationals this year was my first tournament ever. I'm not being serious here at all, I just want people to laugh at my complete and utter failure this year.
Game 1
I get a lone baltoy start AND go first. so I start by slapping on a DCE and try to do some damage with spinning attack (20 btw). He starts with a lone luxray, puts on one flashbite then another using a poketurn he topdecked, followed by an energy gain and 1 basic energy on Luxray and bites me for the donk.
0-1
Game 2
Round 2 puts me against a red face powder Electovire FB/ Raichu deck, and I'm thinking "oh crap, my beautifly is weak to this..." I actually end up drawing out the game longer and losing by like 2 prizes.
0-2
Game 3
This round I play Blastoise/Feraligatr deck. We both get slow starts and he manages to attach 3 energy to Squirtle and use spinning attack, or something like that, for 40. I warp point out one of his weak benched pokemon and just start steamrolling through this guy with Beautifly and Dustox. And For the big finish: Colorful powder on Feraligatr Prime for 160 + Burn, Asleep and Poison. =3
1-2
Game 4
Round 4 I played a rather nervous individual with an SF Tyranitar deck. He sets up faster than I do, and I can't catch up. Dumb tyranitars...
1-3
Game 5
I don't even remember what happens this game. I just know I got mercilessly beaten to a pulp again. :l
(What happened to that amazing winning ability I had game three?)
1-4
Game 6
Beat up on Casper the Friendly Ghost (the guy I was supposed to play never showed up.) He never stood a chance against my seemingly mad skill.
2-4
Game 7
Let me just start by saying this was the last game I played before I dropped. This was another close game against an electric deck (similar to round 2, I actually sat next to that guy during this round). After we each took three or so prize cards, he locked me so bad I could only draw. From there I just got pummeled.
2-5 (final)
Props
-My one actual win was epic.
-First time to Nats
-Free stuff during side events
-Got to judge three 8-man pick-up tourneys and made 11 UL packs and a 2nd Promo Garchomp doing so
Slops
-Everything else
-Convention Center food is expensive.
So, if you choose to leave negative/sarcastic/encouraging comments (one can hope, right?) feel free, just remember to follow pokegym's rules. =)
